Hey there,
New here from SC. I have a 71 Starcraft 16ss that I've had for about 18yrs, and I just got a G3 1436 the other day.
I tore the Starcraft apart a few yrs back and built it up to suit my needs, mainly my river island jumping, deer and wild hog hunting boat. She's got a 1995 evinrude 90hp, that I got new in 95. I use my Starcraft alot, I love my old Starcraft.
I've been slack on getting into the inlet and around the jetties to do much fishing, so I had some spare cash, had a craving for a new creek boat, and found the G3. She's a 2011, never been in the water, new trailer. The guy that bought it had the whole inside Rhino lined. About the only thing I'm gonna do to her is put a flat floor in, and a little deck up front, some pole holders, fish finder, I have an old 15hp Evinrude that should fit right on her.
I actually also have a 1960 12ft aluminum boat, had this one forever. That one is gonna be the donor for the 15hp, then she's gonna get a good scrubbing, and hopefully find a new home. She's in good shape, sitting on a good trailer. I painted her about 5yrs ago, she's probably been in the water 2-3 times since then. I put in a cheap floor, which is now shot. I plan to re-do the floor and clean her up before I pass her along.
I'll put some pics up later.
